Hi,
I'm trying to establish the link from my local mdb to an mdb on a commercial server I'm using.
The problem is there's no way to locate the remote access database when using the Link Table wizard.
Anyone knows how to establish that connection??
Thanks in advance!

I've been told numerous times that a shared database should have each user with their own FE. I've also seen in a number of places that the FE should be on the user's local machine. Is the FE on the local machine to limit network traffic only, or is there a greater reason for it?
I was under the assumption that the seperate FE's were to lower the probability of corruptions and sharing of local temp files... If this is the case, is it reasonable enough to have each user have their own FE in their own user folder on the network?

Can anyone tell me if it is possible to update an Access Database by reading a .txt file in an Access program and then using SQL in a DAO mode to actually create new rows on the Access Data Base?
Specifically, I wish to read a .txt file in an Access program, extract specific bits of data from the .txt file, and then create new rows on an Access Table.
I have been able to do everything that I needed to do except that I just can't figure out how to write the code to create to create the rows on the Table. I know that I could do it using ADODb except this entire application is written in DAO.
Can anybody give me some guidance?
Many Thanks

I have an MS Access accdb with linked SQL Server 2012 ODBC tables. I am working on a procedure to copy data from local tables to these linked tables (identical schema). I did a simple
Code:
DoCmd.RunSQL "INSERT INTO linkedTable SELECT * FROM localTable"
This works, but is very slow. Way too slow. (INSERT copies the data one record at a time).
I would like to copy the data in a bulk operation, or operations that I can execute programmatically.

Hi, I would like to recreate a record locking problem (error # 3218) our users are experiencing on an application we have developed. I currently do not have access to a network, so I would like to run multiple instances of Access on one machine. How do I do that?
Thanks,

Hi,
I have this project where I need to scan the MRP zone on the passport to my form. Let me first explain what is MRP zone. MRP is know as Machine Readable Passport Zone which you usally find on the first page of US Passport right under the Photographs and it looks like this
P<USAERIKSSON<<ANNA<MARIA<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
0550667081USA6908061F9406236ZE184226B<<<<<14
1st Line
So P stands for Passport and Contry code is USA and then last name Eriksson and first name Anna and middle name Maria.
2nd line
Passport number and Date of birth and sex and so on.
Now I am in process of ordering a keybord that has a MRP reader on the top( http://www.accesskeyboards.co.uk/ATB420%20Reader.htm ) from this company in UK. You can find the specification on the keyboard from the above link.
So as soon as I scan/swipe it, it will give me information in the following format.
FIRST NAME, LAST NAME, DOB, SEX, PASSPORT NUMBER.
SO ONCE I HAVE THE INFORMATION IN COMMA FORMAT, HOW DO I GET THIS DATA INTO MY RESPECTIVE FIELDS INSTANTLY, AS SOON AS I SWIPE THE PASSPORT.
My field name in the table are
LastName
FirstName
BirthDate
PassportNo
MaleFemale
Thanks.

I recently bought a new computer and it was kinda cheap, so no office products were installed on the computer. A friend loaned me her copy of Office 2003 which didn't have Access on it. So, after installing Office 2003 I picked my old Office 97 CD and installed just Access 97. Then I go to open the database and get this annoying message.
Microsoft Access can't start because there is no license for it on this machine.
Can anyone help? Thanks for your time.

I have a form based on a query where I want to document the status of certain records. The original data is on a SQL server so I am linking to it in my query. I have a local table with the added fields to document my review and status. My query has both tables in it and are linked by the report number. So I have join properties to show all records from the SQL database and only the records in the local table that match. So initially the data in my local table will be blank. I want to use the form to add comments on the status. The problem is, when I type in the form fields nothing happens. It's like the query is confused and won't let the form write back to the local table.
So my question is, do I have my query set up properly so that I can read the fields from the SQL database and yet write in my comments to the local table. I am using a select query.
Thanks for the help.

I am just beginning to design a small data base, where end users will mainly use an Access Form to search and view data.
The (lab) data will be arriving to our group occasionally over the next 2 years, and will be put into an Excel file (formatted the same, each time). The new data could be appended on the end of a master file...so I could link just one file to a table in Access. I need to build a Form, based on this data.
But, I am not sure if I should link the file from the beginning (since I've read that I cannot change data types or field sizes, if I link)....
Maybe I should import one existing file, manipulate the table parameters as needed, then design my Form....then link later?????? :confused:
what would you do in this situation?
thanks!

I am very new to Access, I do work for different companies inputting data.
I usually use excel and then I have to retype the information into another database.
One of my companies is a school. I have to print certificates when the class is complete, but what I'd like to know is,
is there a way I can take the names of the students and using Access just have the names appear on the certificates without having to retype all of the names individually?
I would appreciate any information you can provide for me, this sure would save lots of time.
I hope I explained my question clear enough.

Hi there,
I am about to start working on a new project where I have a front-end in Access2000 that is linked to a ODBC Data Source (ORACLE).
There could be some performance issues in the future, when the users have to retrieve (query) the data from the ODBC over the network and it slows down. Nothing is sure yet, but when this is the problem, I will need to look at an alternative plan. I had the following in mind:
I would like to create a scheduler program, that will retrieve all the relevant data from the ODBC and update the tables that are local to each user’s Access .mdb file. Can I do something like this in VBA, or do I need to do something with the Windows Scheduler?
Any tips are welcome, thanks in advance

(this is a repost )
I will skip the basic intro of "Hi im new to access and i dont know.."
anyways, what I am trying to search for and I dont know what Im looking for is this.
Q1) I would like to be able to open a zip file, read the NFO/txt file from within and import certain areas of the NFO file,the NFO file of course is layed out with ascii art but there is a predetermined area where certain info is obtained. for example: I would like to capture/import the URL, testers name, date avaliable, zip file name.THEN the text imported would be written to the database. It would be nice to figure out how you go about importing certain lines but im not sure how to ask the question and find the answer the right way. ie...(ascii art found here http://www.ascii-art.de/)
-= I did search import text and get text and didnt find what I was looking for=-
Q2) How do I write to an ascii file/nfo/txt using access, there is a template or a layout that is pre done,and i need certain fields filled out, just like they above layout.
thanks for all your help, you guys are awsome, and keep up the good work!

I'll try to explain what I'm trying to do. I want to use the MS Access (2010) application residing on the remote server on a Access database(accdb) that is located on my local (home) PC. I copied the database from the server. How do I get Access (running on the server) to work on my copy of the database?
I tried using my local (on my PC) copy of MS Access (2007) to work on the database, but but I get file errors (file paths look like server paths).

Hello All,
So much has been discussed on the main boards about the techniques available to solve technical problems.
When you read books on data base design; much is discussed on the structure of databases and much more is left out concerning how people actually work. A properly designed data base enhances work flow and changes workers bad work habits into useful and efficient ones.
My primary market is emerging small businesses. Typically my customers have been using spread sheets and Quick Books to keep track of ordering, scheduling, resource allocation, and accounting.
As you can imagine it’s a disaster. Individuals in the company have spent much time working out their problems in Excel. This poses a real challenge, many of the user are very emotionally attached to the existing non-system, and they are often determined that the “new database” will function in the same way as their tried an true spread sheets.
So to open the discussion.
I’m curious. What do ya’ll do to ameliorate this and what is the general theme you prefer when creating a system for people that have never had one before?

I am trying to create a database to create a purchase list of parts for a final assembly. There are several subassemblies that make the final unit. There are also subassemblies within subassemblies.
I want to be able to create a list of parts for purchase for the completed unit.
I have a table of part numbers that assigns part numbers to parts as ewell as subassemblies. in this table there is field that designates what type of part it is, System, assembly or base part. I am trying to query the "system" to get a quantity of all base parts contained in it. The feils in the table are part number, part name and what type of part it is.
I am having trouble with the queries or what should be in the table.

How can I stop agents from leaving a database open after they have finished there days work. I maintain and modify a database from home, but some agents forget to close the database at the end of the day. That prevents me from doing any modification on the database. Maybe a simple message that would come up and close on a regular timed bases. Or some other simple way of reminding them to close before leaving for the night.
